I’m trying to forecast the value of various keywords using the google Adwords API, using the traffic estimator service. So far, the clicks, costs per click, and other metrics returned through the API don’t come anywhere close to those retrieved through the Keyword Planner console. There are several adjustable forecast parameters in the console such as language, location, and search network, and I tried to match these parameters in the API.

I'm wondering if there is some other element that needs to be adjusted that I'm missing. For example, the console gives you the option to "select an ad group" for the forecast, and I'm not sure how this would be applied within the API.

Is there a way to allow the Google Ads API token to perform only the following operation:

• adding IP addresses on all campains blacklist.

I am currently trying to integrate single Google Ads account for my client using RestSharp in C# (don't want to use client libraries). I have found the useful link to generate access token by providing client ID , Client secret and Refresh token.

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/rest/auth

I am now trying to test on Postman first before I start developing code in C# but failing to get access token. The screen shot below shows the call I am doing to get access token using Post man.

I also tried CURL in postman which was mentioned in the link above but getting the same error.

FYI it is a Desktop app chosen in google console to generate client ID and secrete because I will be creating console app to integrate Google Ads API.

I just added a Remarketing event snippet for a dynamic remarketing campaign to product pages in my store. here is an example of the code rendered on the page:

<script async="" src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=AW-XXXXXXXXX"></script> <script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);} gtag('js', new Date()); gtag('config', 'AW-XXXXXXXXX'); </script> <script>  gtag('event', 'page_view', {  'send_to': 'AW-XXXXXXXXX',  'google_business_vertical' : 'retail',  'id' : 'YYYYYYYYYY',                        // Google Merchant Center ID  'ecomm_pagetype': 'product',  'ecomm_prodid': 'zzzzzzzzzzzzzz',  'ecomm_totalvalue': '255.00'  }); </script> 

This looks correct to me, but Google Tag Assistant extension says there's an error:

When I click 'Requests' and go to the 2nd one, it shows the following meta data:

which again, looks correct to me.

Also, when I go Google Ads --> Audience Manager --> Audience Sources --> Google Ads Tag, it tells me there's an issue: Issue: ecomm_prodid never received

This is very confusing since ​ecomm_prodid is present and has a vale in the meta data above. I'm not sure what else I could be doing wrong. If anyone can help troubleshooting or sees something wrong to begin with, I'd be most appreciative.

The scripts are being added to the tag of a Shopify theme... in case that matters.

Thanks!!

The Company I work with has many clients who uses Google Ads to do marketing for their websites. The company wants to use client's data for Analysis. I am given a project to integrate Google Ads API using C# to get all the data such as Campaigns etc from Google ads and move it to our system for each client. I am only given developer token and customerID for Clients. such as

1. Customer ID for Client A
2. Customer ID for Client B

I am bit lost when I went through the google ads API documentation. In the documentation, the OAuth2.0 needs creating in order to use client library which would generate client ID and Client Secret, Refresh token to integrate the API. My question is. Do I need to create OAuth2.0 for each client or do I need to ask my company to generate Client ID and secret in company's Manager Account or Client that uses Google ads would provide me these?

The following Link I found to create OAuth2.

https://developers.google.com/google-ads/api/docs/oauth/cloud-project

This is what I believe would require in C# Content can be found at https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/first-api-call#.net_1

Would highly appreciate if any one can help me what actually I need to configure google ads using C#
